I live in Ponte . Vedra. Beach, Florida and I am in the third grade. I am going to share with you about my first expedition to the Galapagos Islands, Ecuador on the National Geographic Endeavor. The Galapagos Islands was my favorite trip yet, because of all of the amazing and neat animals that I saw like sea lions, land iguanas, marine iguanas, birds, fish, sea turtles and tortoises..

The improved spatial, temporal and spectral attributes of the ABI allow for monitors plumes associated with rockets and other hotspots. . Instead of needing to show 3 or 4-panels with separate spectral bands, these RGBs combine information on the plumes from several key spectral bands: 3.9 micrometer or the “fire band”, the upper-level water vapor band (8), and a visible or “near-visible” band. ABI band 2 is used during the day, while the 7.3 micrometer (water vapor) band at night. .
